Leukocyte Recruitment to Peritoneal Cavity of Rats Following Formalin Injection: Role of Tachykinin Receptors

The aim of this work was to verify whether formalin would induce leukocyte recruitment following intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection in rats. Formalin (1.25 – 2.5%) induced cell recruitment, which was concentration- and time-dependent (0 – 24 h). Two peaks of leukocyte recruitment were observed. The fi...
